ISPEAK - A voice for people with Selective Mutism

Selective Mutism (SM) is a severe situational anxiety disorder which affects both children and adults. The condition generally starts in early childhood but can, if not treated early enough, continue into adulthood.

iSpeak aims to give people with Selective Mutism their own say about their own condition. We aim to inform the general public, health services, the media, and also academia via our own life experiences. It exists to support adults and older children with Selective Mutism, and their parents; and also to challenge misinformation and stereotypes surrounding this anxiety disorder.
